I would not recommend this product. It looks like and functions like an elliptical, however, it is not a good exercise machine. The biggest complaint I have is the stride length which is 11" not 17" as advertised. This makes a huge difference in the exercise and makes for an unsatisfactory experience. It is a joke if you compare it to a standard gym elliptical with a stride of 18"+. The fly wheel is too light making for a very bumpy and uneven cycle. Max resistance isn't very hard.The price can't be beat. The question is: is a sub-standard exercise machine worth that much money?
Manual said good for up-to 220 lbs. I think 200 lbs should be the limit. Otherwise I am happy with my purchase. This item works quite well, and I would recommend to friends.

I READ OTHER REVIEWS THAT STATED IT WASN'T TOO HARD TO ASSEMBLE. I MUST BE DENSE, IT TOOK QUITE A LONG TIME TO PUT THIS TOGETHER. FOR THE MONEY, IT'S A PRETTY GOOD STARTER MACHINE.
- How accurate was the sizing? VERY
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. OKAY
- Was the product free of any manufacturer defects? ONE OF THE PIECES WAS BENT AND WE WERE ABLE TO STRAIGHTEN IT.
This is a wonderful piece of machinery. Just what I wanted and needed. My grandson put it together in one hour and fifteen minutes. It works great. I had read some of the comments about some noise but mine does not have any. No one would know I was even on the bike except for my huffing and puffing. I am an eighty one year old female and this is the bike for a person my age or any age that doesn't want anything fancy and one that will still do the job. My family and friends that have seen it and think it is great and I know I made the right choice.

I've never purchased an elliptical machine before so I do not have much to compare this to....This elliptical is quiet which is nice, but has very little (if any) resistance. On the other hand, 20 minutes on this machine goes by like a breeze and i do sweat a little. If you are looking for a hard workout, I would choose another machine. Note- This is my 4th purchase from Overstock and I am still extremely pleased with their service.
This machine suits me fine. I was needing a light exercise machine to keep me in shape shice I can not get out and walk in the winter as much as I would like to. This fits the bill for me. However, I am not a large person and do not need to loose weight. I only want to stay fit and in tone, that is why I gave it a 5 star rating. This is what it means for me. This machine has remained sturdy during the past two months that I have had it.
The set-up took forever, the directions were not very clear but now that its together its great. Had to loosen the screws a little to keep it from making noise and now its very quiet. Especially for the money this machine is great.
I like everything about this machine and you will too, it is smooth and does not jar you body at all. It is a good looking machine and it is well, made. What are you waiting for ?
I think this product is pretty good. I use it all the time, and it doesn't sweak. It was very easy to assemble. The bike seat is a little uncomfortable. The positioning for the exercise bike isn't the greatest, but I use it on occasion. The elliptical exercise part is great! There are a couple things that would make it better. The foot rest area could be a little bigger, and the resistent could be a little harder. I think once I use it for awhile, it may not have enough resistent for me. Overall, it is pretty good. I am satisfied.
Received this machine a few weeks ago. It doesn't get that much resistance, but you get a good workout on it none-the-less. After a few rigorous uses, it started squeaking, BUT, you get what you pay for. I think it was a worthwhile purchase though. A good starter machine, and you can't beat the price.
